This is a great little park that is run by the County now, but is everything you would expect from a clean campground! Large campsites that you can back into or pull through. You get to choose. They have a beautiful beach and a large lake for canoeing. Lots of covered picnic shelters and even a playground for the kids. Not that we take any along! We were there on Nov. 29, 2010 and the fall colors on some tree’s. There bath house is great as well.
I highly recommend this park because it’s a great stay-over for a night or a whole weekend. There is no wi-fi, not even through our VirginMobile. Then again, there’s never any connection at any State Park so none was expected.
